Hello all. I decided to upgrade my mid range photo capacity on my Nauticam 7dII rig, and after one short trip I changed my mind on everything. This is my order from one month ago from reef Photo and my the prices I paid. I would like to sell everything on this page. All of it is in absolutely perfect (Except the 30mm extension ring which I purchased used, it is slightly scratched), like new condition, with 6 dives. No scratches or marks on the dome. Would like to get the amount listed minus 10% on each item but will consider reasonable offers, free shipping to the US, no tax. Will sell separately or as a package. feel free to contact me at saudio AT earthlink.net (replace AT and spaces with @) Thanks Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 OS Macro OS HSM Contemporary Lens for Canon × 1 $339.00 Nauticam N120 Extension Ring 20 with Lock × 1 $320.00 cp.3512 Used Nauticam N120 Extension Ring 30 with Lock (SKU: 21130) × 1 $199.95 Nauticam SC1770OSC-Z Zoom Gear for Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM | C × 1 $210.00 Zen DP-170-N120 Underwater 170mm Optical Glass Dome Port for Nauticam SLR Housings × 1 $999.00 Nauticam M10 Strobe Mounting Ball for Housing (With Hole for Using with Lanyard) × 1 $40.00

These are mine, only selling because I bought Z330s. https://www.ebay.com/itm/173424732466?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649

Hi Pavel. After I returned home from my trip with the UW Technics TTL board, I did a comparison bench test, using both the Technics board and the onboard strobe taking rapid secession shots. I did not get the same results you describe above, the three shots I took with the onboard flash TTL all seemed to be exposed exactly the same. I made a video of this test to send to my dealer to help explain the trouble I was having. I can post the vids here if you like.

Hi Pavel, thanks for the reply. Are you with UW Technics? Everything you said is correct and I understand. However, if you use the onboard strobe in TTL mode, you can shoot continuously until the recharge time of the camera strobe starts to lag. So it is clearly possible for the Z240's to be able to shoot continuously in TTL, but it seems the Technics product had not been able to replicate the Canon TTL exactly. Some photographers may find the lag time between shots to be acceptable, but for me, having to count in my head between frames to be sure I get a properly exposed shot is not something I can live with. And I counted at least 2 full seconds lag with the UW Technics board. It seems to work well other than the lag, so if you have strobes that are compatible it would be very useful. But I'm still looking for something that works properly with my 240s (now 330s). I would suggest to UW Technics that they mention in their user manual this issue with lower powered strobes. I spent an awful lot of time on my trip trying to figure out why it was not working properly.

I shoot a Canon 7DII and Nauticam. I'd really like to have a TTL trigger that solves the problem of using the onboard strobe as a trigger because of the awful recharge delay after a few frames with the onboard strobe. I purchased the UW Techincs model and used it for a week, and discovered that after the first shot you have to wait 2-3 seconds before the next shot or you get a greatly diminished strobe output (dark, useless image). To me that is no better, in the long run, than the delay with the onboard strobe. I sent it back and the shop checked with the manufacturer (I had hoped I received a defective unit) that this is a normal condition for this device. The Turtle version doesn't seem to have the Canon problem solved either. Does anybody make one that works properly? thanks Mike

Curious if those bulging front lenses will affect the buoyancy compared to a 240.
